Abstract
This report describes a very rare Dandy-Walker malformation (DWM) and emphasizes the follow-up for asymptomatic DWM. This case reports a man with undiagnosed DWM who was asymptomatic until the age of 59 years when he presented with headache. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed DWM. To our knowledge, this is the first report that describes a patient who was diagnosed with DWM presenting with headache without any other symptoms.
